And I'm not so in love with making people mad that I want to live my life around it.
I cannot be made into the commentator for the unspoken black masses.
You know, every time a summer movie comes out, people think they're gonna get rich off of the merchandise.
You know, Democratic and Republican administrations alike have supported individuals and regimes that have slaughtered millions across the globe. And they need to be held accountable for that.
You can't accuse the creator of The Boondocks, ... Jesus was black, Ronald Reagan was the devil and the government is lying about 9/11.
We have to confront the very scary fact that the president is a moron. He's really dumb.
I wonder what it means when your grandson is more crotchety than you are.
Fluid and energetic and wild very, very smart and very, very funny.

I think you should know that real-life white people are not all as funny as the ones on 'Seinfeld'.
